Drake finally confirms he has a son in the lyrics for his incredible new album

After months of speculation, Drake has finally confirmed he’s a baby daddy!

The 31-year-old rapper finally revealed that he fathered a child with French adult film-star, Sophie Brussaux, on his new album, Scorpion, which was released shortly before midnight on Thursday, and will be dictating everyone’s Instagram captions for the rest of the year.

On his track, Emotionless, which samples pop-queen Mariah Carey, the Canadian raps: “I wasn’t hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid.”

Rumours about Drake’s secret child resurfaced last month, when a feud with fellow rapper, Pusha T, led to a diss track called The Story of Adidon, in which he addressed that Drake was refusing to acknowledge his son.

Pusha also claims that Drake’s new Adidas collab is called Adidon, named after his son, Adonis - and that he was only going to confirm the child’s existence once he started selling sneakers.

Despite this, almost as soon as the diss track was released, it was reported that Drake had been financially supporting Brussaux since late into her pregnancy, and that she was living comfortably with the star quietly giving her money.

New album, Scorpion, also addresses Drake’s relationship with his son’s mother in one of the slower tracks March 14.

On the Marvin’s Room-esque track, he confirms Adonis was born 11 October, and says he celebrated in Miami when the DNA test confirmed he was the little boy’s father. However, he also reveals that whilst he went and bought a crib for the baby, he only ended up meeting him once at Christmas time.

Aside from the big baby news, the Canadian rapper’s album also includes features from Jay-Z and Nicki Minaj, as well as a Michael Jackson sample, which seems to be unreleased music from the King of Pop - as if we needed any more of the feels.
